If you need to run MS DOS then why would you want to get a mac?

Why try to fit a square peg into a round hole?

How in the world is anyone supposed to answer this question for you?

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the worthiness of a computer depends on what you intend to do with it (and therefore how useful it is to you) versus how much it costs (and therefore how much you can afford).

If you don't supply more information on the above what replies can you expect? A fanboy "Sure man, it Rocks!" would be the most likely.

It's a NOTEBOOK for gawd's sake!

How many notebooks (mac or otherwise) have upgradeable graphics cards?

just curious to ask, 1 of my friend tell me he manage to get macbookpro with the price only rm4k and is international warranty. the question is why the notebook so cheap? he told me because this lappie escape tax from the government. So, is it possible to get a mbp only rm4k where retail price in shop is 9k+??

As has been posted here before: Computers in Malaysia are TAX FREE.

Hence your friend is feeding you a load of BS.

It's a good deal if you can get it though (don't forget to get one for me too!)

There are two possibible outcomes:

1. You get a really cheap computer.

2. You lose 4K (and a friend).

I hope it's option 1. (But I think 2. is more likely)
